WHO: The event is recommended for EDA tool developers, IC design engineers, and IP providers to discuss the industry-critical topics of interoperability and standards.
WHAT: The November 2009 Forum focuses on the latest developments in EDA interoperability with sessions dedicated to:
The Interoperable Process Design Kit (PDK) Libraries Alliance:
- Demonstration by key IPL Alliance members showing a single 90nm generic interoperable PDK supporting multiple vendor tools and flows including schematic capture, simulation, layout editing, physical verification and extraction
System-Level Design:
- Hear the latest developments in SystemC(tm) TLM-2.0 through the experiences of JEDA(tm) Technologies, Carbon Design Systems(tm) and Tensilica.
VMM Verification Methodology:
- Presentations from key VMM Catalyst program members on new features in VMM for verification planning and VIP, verification of low power designs, rapid testbench development and more. Attendees will receive a copy of the Doulos® Golden Reference Guide for VMM.
The Forum, with this year's theme of "Peace, Love and Interoperability," also features the most recent advances in these key EDA standards: Liberty(tm) Library Modeling, IEEE Standard 1801(tm) for Low Power, and the HapsTrak(tm) standard for prototyping board connectors.
WHEN: Thursday, November 5th in Santa Clara, Calif. The Forum is open to all who wish to attend at no cost. Lunch and a light breakfast are included.
WHERE: The Sun Conference Center at Agnews Historic Park in Santa Clara, Calif. from 9:00am to 5:00pm. For more information, directions, and to register, visit: http://www.synopsys.com/...
